I'm currently going back and forth between two books. Unwilling To Concede and What The Holy Spirit Does In A Believers Life. The last one is seriously THE best book I've ever read on Holy Spirit.
I've read thru this book so many times I've lost count now and each time always seems like the first. It's fresh and alive.
Here's a little excerpt below:
"Wind and fire! Rushing mighty wind alone how terrible! Who shall stand against it? See how the gallant ships dash together and the monarchs of the forest bow their heads. And fire alone! Who shall stand against it when it devours its prey? But set wind and fire to work in hearty union! Remember the old city of London. When the flames first began, it was utterly impossible to quench them because the wind fanned the flame and the buildings gave way before the fire-torrent. And what a sight the forest is ablaze! Hear the mighty trees crashing in the flame! What can stand against it? The fire sets the mountains ablaze. What a smoke blackens the skies; the sky grows dark at noon. As hill after hill offers up its sacrifice, the timid imagine that the great day of the Lord has come. To see a spiritual blaze of equal grandeur would be the fulfillment of a devout wish. O God, send us the Holy Ghost in this manner. Give us both the breath of spiritual life and the fire of unconquerable zeal, till nation after nation shall yield to the sway of Jesus. Answer us both by wind and by fire, and then shall we see You to be God indeed."
If you're looking to cultivate your relationship with the wild and untameable Spirit of God, get this book!
